Aarogya Lakshmi

The Churning of the milky ocean that gave Lakshmi back to the world also produced Dhanvantri from its depths. He appeared carrying the pot of ambrosia or elixir or 'Amrit'. Ma Lakshmi is thus deeply connected to the aspect of health as wealth and is represented as Aarogya Lakshmi.

Aarogya means freedom or prevention from 'rog' or illness. As they say, 'prevention is better than cure'. Aarogya Lakshmi inspires us to inculcate healthy habits and prevent any disease right from the start.
